Chronic Refractory Immune Thrombocytopenia Is Associated With Variants in Immune Genes

The pathogenesis of chronic refractory immune thrombocytopenia (C/RITP) is mechanistically complex and considerably varies across patients. Few studies have focused on the genetic characteristics of C/RITP in children. The aim of this study was to analyze and summarize the clinical manifestations an...
